7 Deadly Scenarios: A Military Futurist Explores Warin the 21st Century by Andrew F. Krepinevich describes seven possible international conflicts in the near future and the challenges the United States would face in order to effectively deal with them. Krepinevich writes well and as a result, this book was very enjoyable to read. My only complaint with this book is its conclusion. It seemed a bit tired and Krepinevich kind of reiterates some of the same lessons discussed earlier in the book. Too bad because 90 percent of it is fantastic and the book's strengths far outweigh its weaknesses.
